On Christmas Eve, Hova reportedly dropped several boatloads of cash on Birkin bags for his ladylove. I'm so confused. This gesture goes against so much of both artists' catalogs.

What happened to "Independent Woman (Part I)" when Beyonce was all "the shoes on my feet, I bought 'em, cause I depend on me"? And what about when Jay-Z was like "You wanna see how far I'ma go, how, much I'ma spend but you already know: zip, zero, stingy with dinero"? Were they lying to us? I don't even know what's real anymore. [Showbiz Spy]

Then comes Daniel Craig with the baby carriage. [Showbiz Spy]Hugh Jackman is now officially accident-prone. Celebrity gossip devotees may recall that earlier this month, the actor hurt himself ziplining onto the Australia set of Oprah Winfrey's show.

Something about a guy in a codpiece getting hit in the balls will never not be funny to me. [News.au]Hugh Hefner announced via Twitter that he's engaged to his 24-year old girlfriend, noted astrophysicist Crystal Harris. And by astrophysicist, I mean Playboy playmate who is totally into Hef for his sparkling personality. The marriage will be Hef's third and Harris's first, and all of Hef's fellow residents of Fantasy Pajamaland will be invited and the men will throw their heads back and laugh, clutching their bubble pipes and monocles while their silicon-breasted dates frolic through an erotic bouncy castle.

Battery not included with that Lindsay Lohan that Santa brought you this year. Those charges against her were dropped. [Yahoo]Usher bought 16-year-old Justin Bieber an outfit for Christmas.

[ONTD]Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt spent their holiday in Namibia, where it's safe to assume that they did not do what you did this Christmas, which is grumble about shoveling the front walk and track snow through your parents' kitchen and help push your mom's Toyota Yaris out of a snowbank.
